The Environmental Working Group, an advocacy and research organization, says in a new report released to CNN that liquid formula from the nation's top baby formula makers is sold in cans lined with bisphenol-A, or BPA.
The formula makers acknowledge the presence of BPA, but say it is not harmful. The Food and Drug Administration agrees.
The Environmental Working Group is a nonprofit research organization focused on public health and the environment. It does not take money from special interest groups.
The group previously raised concerns about the presence of BPA in plastic baby bottles and is pushing for regulation of the compound.
